Public Sub Unindent (Optional Point As TextPoint = Nothing, Optional Count As Integer = 1)

Parameters

Point: TextPoint

Count: Int32

Optional. The number of display columns to indent each line. The default is 1.

Examples

Sub UnindentExample()  
  ' Before running this example, open a text document.  
  Dim objTD As TextDocument  
  Dim objEP As EditPoint  

  objTD = DTE.ActiveDocument.Object("TextDocument")  
  objEP = objTD.StartPoint.CreateEditPoint  
  objEP.Indent(,10)  
  objEP.Unindent(,5)  
End Sub

Remarks

Unindent removes Count levels of indentation from each line between the edit point and Point, including the lines that contain these endpoints. The number of columns that display in a level of indentation is determined by a global setting. Tabs and characters are deleted and inserted as necessary to remove one indentation level according to the current global settings for tab size and indent level size.

If Count is negative, then Unindent performs similarly to Indent.

Unindent fails if Count is greater than or equal to 10,000.
